hello, i know that this is a chimera forum, but for the purpose of changing the chain id you can use 2 software packages: 1. vmd. in vmd console you do a selection like: set sel [atomselect top "chain A"] $sel set chain B given that your initial chain id was A and the desired is B if you don't have a initial chain id, then you can specify a residue range: set sel [atomselect top "resid 1 to 24"] $set sel chain B mind you that top specifies the top molecule that is selected in vmd main window. 2. coot. in coot it's simpler: calculate -> change chain ids. in both cases you need to save your file for the changes to take effect best, jean-paul
